Jarod Wilson 72ccc471e1 bonding: fix randomly populated arp target array 
In commit dc9c4d0fe0, the arp_target array moved from a static global
to a local variable. By the nature of static globals, the array used to
be initialized to all 0. At present, it's full of random data, which
that gets interpreted as arp_target values, when none have actually been
specified. Systems end up booting with spew along these lines:

[   32.161783] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): lacp0: link is not ready
[   32.168475] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): lacp0: link is not ready

[   32.193091] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): lacp0: link is not ready
[   32.204892] lacp0: Setting MII monitoring interval to 100
[   32.211071] lacp0: Removing ARP target 216.124.228.17
[   32.216824] lacp0: Removing ARP target 218.160.255.255
[   32.222646] lacp0: Removing ARP target 185.170.136.184
[   32.228496] lacp0: invalid ARP target 255.255.255.255 specified for removal
[   32.236294] lacp0: option arp_ip_target: invalid value (-255.255.255.255)
[   32.243987] lacp0: Removing ARP target 56.125.228.17
[   32.249625] lacp0: Removing ARP target 218.160.255.255
[   32.255432] lacp0: Removing ARP target 15.157.233.184
[   32.261165] lacp0: invalid ARP target 255.255.255.255 specified for removal
[   32.268939] lacp0: option arp_ip_target: invalid value (-255.255.255.255)
[   32.276632] lacp0: Removing ARP target 16.0.0.0
[   32.281755] lacp0: Removing ARP target 218.160.255.255
[   32.287567] lacp0: Removing ARP target 72.125.228.17
[   32.293165] lacp0: Removing ARP target 218.160.255.255
[   32.298970] lacp0: Removing ARP target 8.125.228.17
[   32.304458] lacp0: Removing ARP target 218.160.255.255

None of these were actually specified as ARP targets, and the driver does
seem to clean up the mess okay, but it's rather noisy and confusing, leaks
values to userspace, and the 255.255.255.255 spew shows up even when debug
prints are disabled.

The fix: just zero out arp_target at init time.

While we're in here, init arp_all_targets_value in the right place.

README 

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
